Abstract excerpt
In several neuronal systems, nerve growth factor (NGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) act as neurogenic agents, whereas epidermal growth factor (EGF) acts as a mitogenic agent. Hippocampal stem cell lines (HiB5) immortalized by the expression of a temperature-sensitive SV40 large T antigen also respond differentially to EGF and PDGF. While EGF treatment at the permissive temperature induces...
